About Me

i am doug. i like to meet the cool folks out and about. i like to cuddle on the couch. i like to toss little biscuit treats to my dog. i work for the manufacturer of mentos and airheads, and i spread the joy of candy all throughout the world. i was raised as a mennonite. i don't like pretention, or stupidity, or general pissiness. sometimes i feel old, but sometimes i feel young; often i feel both at the same time. i like to laugh, mostly at myself. i like to make drawings of little animal-monster-type things. i like to play around with computers, but sometimes i get myself all grumphy. i dig the theatre and all it (and art in general) stands for. i think i'm gonna like this myspace thing.
